SUMMARY:Investment Treaty Arbitration and the (New) Law of State Responsibility
DESCRIPTION:The Vale Columbia Center on Sustainable International Investmentpresents Investment Treaty Arbitration and the (New) Law of State ResponsibilityTalk and Discussion with Martins PaparinskisColumbia Law School, Jerome Greene Hall, Room 807Can a State mistreat foreign investors in retaliation for conduct of their State of nationality, yet without breaching its investment protection treaty obligations? Conversely, can States of nationality of investors bring claims regarding the mistreatment of their investors, even in the presence of investor-State arbitration clauses? Can investors waive the substantive and procedural protection provided in investment protection treaties? And can an interpreter of an investment treaty draw upon general international law of inter-State diplomatic protection, whether to fill the perceived gaps in the rules on nationality, or read in a futility exception in the requirement of local pre-arbitration litigation? All of those questions entirely depend upon, or at least can be significantly affected by, the manner in which the law of State responsibility fits within investment protection law. Paparinskis will suggest that one can articulate this fit in three plausible ways -- by reference to international law of human rights, law of treaties on third parties, and law of diplomatic protection -- and explain the important implications flowing from these readings. Martins Paparinskis, D. Phil. (Oxon), is a Lecturer in Law at University College London. He was previously a Junior Research Fellow at Merton College, University of Oxford and a Hauser Research Scholar at the New York University. He is a general international lawyer with a particular interest in international investment law and dispute settlement. His publications include a monograph, The International Minimum Standard and Fair and Equitable Treatment (Oxford University Press, 2013), a compilation of Basic Documents on International Investment Protection (Hart Publishing, 2012), and articles in such journals as the British Yearbook of International Law and the European Journal of International Law. He is the Book Review editor of the Journal of World Investment and Trade, a member of the International Law Association's Study Group on the Use of Domestic Law Principles for the Development of International Law, and a member of the Panel of Arbitrators of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes. Pizza and refreshments will be served!Co-hosted by The Columbia International Arbitration Association (CIAA).

SUMMARY:Information Session\: Journal of Law and Social Problems
DESCRIPTION:What\: A panel with members of the outgoing and incoming editorial boardWhen\: Monday, April 14 (12\:10pm)Where\: JG 104Non-pizza lunch will be served!Please come with any questions you might have about JLSP, applying early, or life as a 2L staffer. Please note\: you do not have to attend the panel in order to apply early, but we encourage you to do so!Why you want to be on JLSPJLSP 2L staffers have by far the smallest workload of any journal. JLSP publishes only student-written Notes. Since students cite to largely electronic sources (you know it's true), source gathering assignments are substantially easier for JLSP staffers than for staffers of any other journal. Your friends on other journals will have to hunt down rare editions of books available only in the dusty corners of non-law libraries (which are even worse than law libraries.) You, a future JLSP staffer, will do your source gathering from the comfort of your own home.Because we only publish student Notes, almost all written by our own 2L staffers, JLSP presents the greatest chance of getting your Note published, which is very valuable during the clerkship hunt and is otherwise a nice gem on the resume. Last year, everyone who wanted to be on the editorial board was offered the opportunity. If you want to be on the E-Board of a journal (a requirement for many clerkships and government jobs), your chances are best with JLSP.Because we publish only student Notes, about a quarter of our editorial board is dedicated exclusively to helping 2Ls with the Note-writing process, which means plenty of help writing your Note.Finally, because we are a general interest journal, you can write your Note about whatever you want. Do you know what you want to write your Note about yet? No? We look forward to your application.We look forward to seeing you!Questions? Contact Taly Matiteyahu at tgm2107@columbia.edu

SUMMARY:The Wages of Human Trafficking
DESCRIPTION:Speaker\: Rana Jaleel, Center for Reproductive Rights-Columbia Law School Fellow Non-pizza lunch will be served RSVP not required, but encouraged - email cgao@law.columbia.edu What is the wrong of human trafficking? From any vantage, it is a problem of exploitation. The U.S. legal imaginary casts human trafficking as largely the lot of the poor and the foreign who find themselves funneled into commercial sex work, construction, food service, home health care, agricultural work, or other forms of low wage, poorly regulated, labor. And yet from chronic wage theft to an increased vulnerability to on the job sexual violence, the exploitation endured by low wage workers (predominantly women and/or people of color) looks the same as the kind of exploitative work that meets the legal definition of trafficked work. This talk assesses the implications of maintaining a distinction between work under conditions that meet the legal definition of human trafficking and other low wage work—a division whose racial and gendered dimensions are compounded by the Obama Administration’s legally questionable designation of human trafficking as “modern slavery.”

SUMMARY:Faculty-Student Intellectual Life Series\: A Paper, Lunch, and a Chat
DESCRIPTION:Uncivil Obedience with David Pozen and Jessica Bulman-PozenIn April 1993, a group of California motorists hit the road to protest the fifty-five-miles-per-hour freeway speed limit. They did not break any laws, or even test any legal bounds. But their actions caused significant disruption and enraged people around them. What did they do? “[J]ust about the worst thing you can do to your fellow freeway drivers\: They stayed within the speed limit.” To challenge the fifty-five-miles-per-hour rule and encourage its repeal, the National Motorists Association devised a peculiar form of protest\: meticulous adherence to the very law it opposed.Lunch is served. Definitely NOT pizza.Seating is limited. RSVP by clicking here.RSVP is not required; however, as the event is a conversation based on a paper, we strongly suggest you RSVP. The short paper will be emailed to you Monday afternoon. Please note, due to Passover, a Kosher lunch option is not available for this event.

SUMMARY:Babies without Borders\: Human rights, International Commercial Surrogacy and the Regulation of Reproduction
DESCRIPTION:Speaker\: Yasmine Ergas, Director, Gender and Public Policy Specialization, SIPA; Associate Director, Institute for the Study of Human Rights, Columbia University. Non-pizza lunch will be served RSVP not required, but encouraged - email cgao@law.columbia.edu Who is a mother? How should gestation be understood? In commercial surrogacy are women selling their services as gestators or are they selling the end-products of the gestation, i.e. children? And, when many states are involved, who can decide and on what basis? These questions have become increasingly urgent as conflicts among legal systems have placed children born as a result of international commercial surrogacy arrangements at risk of being “marooned stateless and parentless.” Is an international agreement possible? And, how might it be guided by international human rights law?
